If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Deficiencies – Get Rid of Yours and Be Healthy!

Food Fight #29

I found the following article by Margaret Durst to be very useful as a summary for how nutrition affects daily life: Deficiencies – Get Rid of Yours and Be Healthy!

My Take Away From The Article

If we want to get the most out of life, we must get the most out of our bodies. If we want to get the most out of our bodies (including the brains we use to make every decision), we must get all the nutrition the body requires. In order to always have this nutrition, we must get the most out of our food. Every meal must contain “high quality” fresh un-interfered with, fruits and vegetables.

Caution: Don't treat supplements as The Answer. Instead, consider them a temporary measure while urgently addressing food choices and other lifestyle choices. Food is created in the correct ratio and form. It's up to us to make a meal of it.

Related: When cells do not get the pure ingredients they need to function, something will go wrong if the deficiency lasts for an extended period.
The longer our systems are forced to operate on less, the more susceptible our systems are to disruption and corruption..
The most controllable path to health is through food.
